ACCESSIBILITY STATEMENT

​

At Life Concern Organisation (LICO), we are committed to ensuring that our website is accessible to all individuals, regardless of their abilities or disabilities. Our goal is to provide a positive, seamless, and inclusive experience for all users, ensuring everyone can access our services, information, and resources without barriers. We recognize the importance of digital accessibility in building an inclusive world and are constantly working to improve the accessibility of our website in line with best practices and legal requirements.

 

Our Commitment to Accessibility

 

We are committed to providing an accessible and user-friendly website that caters to the diverse needs of our visitors. To achieve this, we continuously assess and improve the accessibility of our online presence to ensure compliance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). These guidelines are designed to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities, including those who rely on assistive technologies such as screen readers, voice recognition software, and other adaptive tools.

 

Key Accessibility Features include:

 

• Our website can be navigated using a keyboard, ensuring that users who cannot use a mouse or other pointing devices can still access all areas of our website.

• We provide alternative text for all images and multimedia content, ensuring that users who are blind or visually impaired can understand the context and meaning through screen readers.

• We strive to ensure that the colour contrast between text and background is sufficient, making content more readable for individuals with visual impairments, including those with colour blindness.

• Our website allows users to adjust the text size according to their preferences, making it easier for individuals with visual impairments to read content comfortably.

• All forms on our website are designed to be easily navigable and usable with assistive technologies, ensuring that everyone can complete and submit forms with ease.

• We use clear and descriptive link text that provides context about the destination of the link, making it easier for all users, including those using screen readers, to understand where the link will lead.

• We recognise that digital accessibility is an ongoing process. As such, we are committed to continually reviewing and enhancing our website to ensure it remains accessible and usable for everyone.

 

Third-Party Content

While we aim to ensure that all content on our website meets accessibility standards, we cannot guarantee the accessibility of third-party content, such as embedded videos or links to external websites. However, we actively encourage our partners and collaborators to prioritize accessibility in their digital content as well.

 

Feedback and Contact Information

We welcome feedback from our users on how we can improve the accessibility of our website. If you encounter any accessibility barriers or have suggestions for improvement, please do not hesitate to contact us. We are committed to addressing any issues as promptly as possible.
